Please review my chat, dating and social networking site.

    I just started a new chat, dating and social networking site. I decided to call it ChatFest.net. This is because I plan to optimize it for keywords related to chat. (Many of you will probably recognize the software I am using.)

    Please check out the site at http://www.chatfest.net

    Tell me what you think and what I still need to do.

    ps. I'm still working on the logo.

    This is completely new website with few members.
    You need to add something more interesting in the right bar, near the footer.
    You have beautiful girls there :D

    Dear Friend
    Site is fine easy to navigate and loading time is too great.
    But this require more attention as far as right bar and the footer is concerned.
    Change the background color from white to some other that would help.
    AW all the best for the same.:)

    Yes I agree. This is one of the next things I will do. Nobody wants to join a chat, dating or social networking site when there are only 5 members.

    I also agree it needs more going on along the right site (near footer).

    The site loads fast and it has nice layout and template.The header image is attractive and the site was easy to navigate.But change the background color and overall need a good promotion for the site.

    It looks really nice, but you will need a good amount of money to promote it to one of the upper tier social networking sites because there are sooo many.

    I've made a few changes from the comments posted here.

    I still plan to add more profiles to lure visitors to sign up.

    I have one last question. Right now only about 1 in 10 visitors actually sign up. How can I increase this conversion to say about 1 in 4 visitors sign up?

    Thanks.

    I think you should change that header logo, it's human chat not "some thing on your header image" chat :) .

    Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand your comment.

    Do you mean to get rid of the penguins at the top and replace with a picture containing humans?

    Or do you mean to include the title logo at the very top instead of on the penguin picture?

    Yes, this is social engine. Why reinvent the wheel when you can buy it from someone else who did. I really like all the 3rd party mods and plugins you can buy for this software.

    I guess I have to agree with the penguins. They are cute, but I need a picture more appropriate to human chat and social networking.

    Anyone have anything like this that would cover the required area at the top?

    I think you must make some contest for your header logo dude, Just interest on human pic :) . I think for now you only need to change that logo and do some SEO work.

    Regard.
